it’s very funny to grow up and become the age you used to think adults were so old and wise at and realize that their inner monologue was ABSOLUTELY “shit shit shit shit shit shit” the whole time
My mom was 23 when she had me.
If I’d done the same, I’d have a kid in school right now, with a personality and everything, and because I don’t, I have ice cream for breakfast sometimes.
I remember once standing in our kitchen and asking how old she was, and she said she was twenty-six. She was getting her driver’s license, and had stuck some documents onto our fridge. I’m older than she had been then, now.
I have no idea what I’m doing. She had no idea what she was doing. There are kids right now who don’t know what they’re doing, but they think I do. So I guess I gotta fake it for them, right? Just like mom did
